Will Higher Ebook Prices Increase Library Demand?
I had already migrated away from Amazon to Sony because our library has an extensive EMedia collection. They even have a Ebookmobile that travels around to all the branches demonstrating Ebooks and how to use the EMedia collection.
I see the Macmillan deal increasing demand on libraries to expand their collections. This could be a great turning point for Ereadership.
I don't mind paying for a title I want to read. I resent not being able to pass the book on to a friend or family member to read when I am done. I would rather contibute to the library to acquire the title for the benefit of many rather than pay Amazon so I can read it once.
